Why is every thread a plug when there's a gig guide page?

This forum died a death about 2 years ago and the only thing that keeps it going are the "plugs".

Post interesting threads, or threads that will get a discussion going (try and be intelligent about it though!)

Threads like the "Song Tag game" and "What choon are you washing your car to now?" are a bit tedious and nobody really gives a crap, the Song Tag one should have been locked ages ago as it's run it's course.

There's a definite difference in the people who post here these days. Maybe I've just changed a lot in the last three years, maybe I'm just getting old, but there's nothing to hold my interest here any more the same banter isn't there.

I think the chatroom helped a bit then, but then that turned into a horrible mess and most of the regulars stopped using it.
